Coastal Carolina fans witnessed a wild weekend. First, the Chants fell to Troy in the Sunbelt Conference Championship. Just like the previous weekend’s event with James Madison, the game was a stunning blow out. Players appeared disheveled under rumors that Head Coach Jamey Chadwell would be leaving for Liberty University.
On Sunday, Chadwell announced he had been hired by Liberty University. He formerly accepted the position as Head Coach for the Liberty Flames.
